And what makes schema changes, well-planned? Now it's not wikimania time :)
The usual procedure is to place the code plus schema change plus updaters in a branch and inform Brion. In theory, he'll review the branch and merge it when the system administration team has a proper update plan; often, several large bits will be lurking around in branches for some time, to allow batching up the bigger updates.
In practice, this doesn't happen often enough.
